Phoca Forum

The update appears in the backend, but a checksum error occurs when attempting to update. Fair enough, I thought—I'll just download and install it manually. But after that, categories wouldn't load anymore, and the category links resulted in a 500 error on the frontend.

I had to restore a backup since I couldn't find a solution.

A real mess... even reverting to version 6.1.1 (by installing it over the top) didn't help.

I’ve now informed all my clients that they absolutely should not perform the update.

Quick fix https://phoca.cz/forum/viewtopic.php?p=187660#p187660

or wait for 6.1.3 release

Thank you!

Hi, thank you for the info, it should be OK in version 6.1.3:

Version 6.1.3 is working now following today's update, but the system plugin doesn't seem to be available on the server and therefore cannot be updated. I would do it manually, but I can't find it in the downloads on the Phoca website. We'll just have to wait and see if Jan makes it available.
